it was nice to meet everyone who attended the meet. if we do the meet again, should we do freeway cruising/country road cruising for photoshooting?
and yea, do the brake job in the back parking shouldn't be any problem at all. i guess we'll have to find a cooler day since it was a bit warm and it will be a lot more fun if the weather is at mid 80's range.

once again, thanks for all who were able to show up and i was happy to meet new friends!!!

p.s. the white RJ kit 3G (kenneth if i remember your name correct), let me know what's up with the price on those PS2 or if you have hook up on the BS RE050A pole position, thanks buddy!

sadly wrong pearl. I need to get it repainted, but budget is low (state worker here) so not something I worry about as the bills are more important. Also if your wondering about the plates in front, I had them off, but I got sick and tired of getting harassed by the meter guys downtown so I gave up and put in the plate (did not screw just silicon it on).

Other than theat great meet. It looks like the Sea Foam made the meet to be so great

I'm up for sometime in Oct., should be cooler by then. I need to switch rotors as well, not sure if I'm going for slotted, drilled, or slotted and drilled. I have a canopy I can bring...

On the Arena road, we could do 3 or 4 cars across and 3-5 rows deep or other formations...could make for some real cool rolling shots

Once again, thanks for everyone showing up, that was a fun meet. Thanks again to Tom for the DIY instruction

PS did anyone get any good shots of my trunk set-up?

.. exactly! ..if hes so concerned about his personal info. getting out then contacting a mod would be the first thing too do to get it removed, which is what he did. What can I do? ..wave my magic wand and hope it magically disappears?

ill;
If I had given you a rant as you believe...you would KNOW it!!!!
I PMd and asked you to be careful about plates in the future- as I had read about it on azine and it was done at the last meet pics.
Nor did I ask you to do anything about it now- I have my Mods that look after me, and then some others that screw with my avatar or sig, just for their own amusement~~

A simple request for thought in framing or cropping- or a quick white out or blur- whatever is easy- thats all
It appears you are headed for a career in Pro photography- where you will be expected to REMOVE the plate in photo shoots or for sale ads
Look online- for sale motorcycles--- with removed plate or blurred.
car ads may do it too- I dont look for a car though!

I did not come on the forum and say anything--- right?- but YOU have decided to get into a tomato throwing contest- with a redhead- ! are you insane!!!!-
We already carry the International Warning Color of RED right there for everyone to see on top of our head!!!

..yeah, I must have misinterpreted your PM because I thought you PM'd me to get it removed, so obviously I got a lil' antsy b/c of the stupid 5min edit rule, and that window was long gone when you pm'd me it. From all the 5yrs. on here, thats right.. 5 YRS.. longer than you, not saying I'm better than you but in the 5yrs. of my own personal experience on here, most of the time I have never blurred out ppl's plates when posting pictures.. even of my own car and haven't rly had an issue with it. Of course, being your car and all.. you have every right to req. to have it edited/removed.. this was all just a big miscommunication.

P.S. No, photography is not the career I'm heading towards.. Its a hobby I recently picked up. I'm in the automotive field (1month. away from completing the Collision and Refinish Course @ UTI/Sacramento)

so you also get most of your exercise jumping to conclusions ill?
That and dodging responsibility keep me supremely fit- as shown in the pics~
say- can you photochop 10 pounds of me next time please!

Taking pro quality before and after pics is a great skill in collision repair- documenting damage, and sell a finished- gleaming-- perfect looking car-- pic to the owner!!
